RECENT HIGHLIGHTS
Doe Elementary Career Day
Last month, Kelsey and Elizabeth set up a table at Doe Elementary's Career Day to talk to the kids about the dangers of smoking! They took the lungs to show the children how a "healthy" lung inflates to full size while the "smoker's" lung has a hard time pumping up. It was a fun and educational day!

Community Support
Established Coalition Grant
Community Support
Although grants are a great source of funding for prevention activities they are restricted in what they are allowed to do. Community partnerships are a great source to help fill in the gap where grant funding leaves off. Allowing us to purchase items and provide activities and entertainment for our youth and children is a great way to cultivate a positive atmosphere for our young people to grow and enrich their lives.
